Korea on the Marine Corps birthday!

In November of 2010 (the week of the 10th to be exact) I got to go on a Korean war veterans tour of Korea with my dad, a veteran of the "Frozen Chosin". It was amazing. We were with a big group of veterans and I loved all of them. They were humble and reverant about their experiences and funny and happy most all of the time. I've never seen a country show so much gratitude for a group of men in my life! They remember and they teach their children to remember.It was like being a celebrity everywhere we went...fun. Thanks dad.

A New Family Picture...outdated already!

Yes, it has definitely been a while. No excuses, just life. If anyone is still checking in now and then this is for you. This is our most current family picture taken at Thanksgiving down in Hurricane for the annual Butler family get-together. Yes, it was a blast. On January 18th Micah Audie Smith made this photo officially obsolete, and we were glad to see it happen. More pictures of him to follow, suffice it to say he's adorable!
